It's called Sisters of the Winter Madrigal. It was interesting for me to see it done after so many years; because I wrote it and I didn't realize what a rage I was in.

My first few plays took place in the South and even The Lucky Spot was in the thirties but in Louisiana.

I was just restless with being in school; so I went out to Los Angeles.

And all writing is creating or spinning dreams for other people so they won't have to bother doing it themselves.

I did write a couple of original screenplays, but I'd rather write plays.

The most glorious thing about working in the collaborative art is when you have somebody like Susan Kingsley or Kathy Bates who are better than your play.

But when I got to SMU and decided to take a playwriting class, I said this isn't a bad idea. IfI write characters, they could be as dumb as me, and I don't have to be very smart.
